This is the front (side?) directly behind the Exxon gas station. Wildwood Medical Building is on the left.
he Mercury is an over-55 apartment building under construction next to Wildwood Medical Building and adjacent to Wildwood Shopping Center in Bethesda, MD.
The development will have 100 units, underground parking, and, I believe, a small amount of retail. The property will be managed by ALVIN L. AUBINOE, INC, which bills itself "as a beacon of excellence in residential and commercial property management".
This is the side of The Mercury that faces Balducci's. Currently just the first floor is above ground. The access road on the left is closed to traffic.
The frankly over-the-top website has breathless descriptions about how the Art Deco inspired building "will reflect a resilient elegance withstanding ebb and flow of design trends" and how it boasts "a selection of opulent one, two, and three-bedroom living spaces". When talking about "the esteemed Wildwood Shopping Center" they mention that "the premier establishments dotting this prestigious locale are...CVS Pharmacy...and three prominent banks. They are highly boastful, using the words "boast", "boasts", and "Boasting" on the website.
Still the side facing Balducci's, but this is the rear portion of it.
For some context, here is the Wildwood Medical Building. The new construction is in what was a parking lot for this building.
